Chapter 263 Annual Summary of the Legislative Assembly
November 1, 1850.
The Legislative Assembly reconvened after a three-month recess.
During this three-month period, many unexpected things took place, so much so that after the start of the Legislative Assembly, many members of the parliament had a large change in seats.
The members of the Bonapartist faction, who had been ostracized by the Party of Order, returned to their seats and were re-elected by the Prince of Montfort, Pierre. Bonaparte and other members of the Bonapartist faction spread out in all directions, and the magnates of the Party of Order (the left wing of the dynasty, Odillon. Barrow, Montalembert, and Broy) surrounded the Bonapartist faction like a star, and the Bonapartists went from a marginal party to a core member.
This change was dramatic not only on the part of the Party of Order, but also on the side of the Social Democrats.
Members of the "Social Democrats" who were the targets of the crackdown suddenly found that the number of seats in their party had increased by more than 80 seats, and the number of seats in the "Social Democrats" had increased to nearly 240.
After careful observation by the "social democrats", they found that many of them were members of the Party of Order.
Many lawmakers who don't understand what is happening will have the following scene.
……
Take a ride in a double-bridge carriage through the early morning mist and hurry to Victor at the Palais Bourbon. Hugo didn't notice the change in the seat of the Bourbon Palace, and when he was about to spread out the notebook he was about to put on the table with his butt in the seat of the mountain faction, a voice came from behind him.
"Hello Councillor Hugo!"
No one is more than Victor. Hugo became more familiar with the owner of this voice.
It stands to reason that the owner of the voice should sit on the side of the party of order.
When Victor. When Hugo smiled and turned his head to look behind him, Remisa's face was reflected in Victor. Hugo's under-the-eye.
"Mr. Remisa, why are you here? Could it be that your soul has already called to you? Or are you no longer able to hear your wallets? "Victor. Hugo continued to recount the original sarcasm of Remisa in a different way.
Remisa, the Thiersian follower and secretary, was unashamed to Victor. Hugo replied: "Monsieur Hugo, your mouth is as sharp as ever!" It would be better if your beliefs were like your mouth.
No one rules that people with different political differences cannot stay in one camp, and a good party must seek common ground while reserving differences in order to succeed! Besides, didn't we have some similar ideas to you before! ”
Remisa's words made Victor. Hugo felt the shamelessness of a powerful man, and he could be sure that Remisa would never join them because he was of the same mind.
However, in order to maintain the unity of the party Victor. Hugo welcomed Remisa into the "social democrats" family.
……
Of course, the "social democrats" are not all like Victor. Like Hugo, he can accept the former party of order without reservation for the sake of party interests, and the entry of a small number of "idealists" into the party of artificial order will inevitably make the whole party become a miasma, and they will not allow former members of the party of order to join.
However, such people exist only in the minority, and their rejection is not destined to be accepted by the leaders of the Republicans and the Mountain faction.
As for the joining of the former Party of Order, the top echelons of the "Social Democrats" believe that this is an opportunity to divide the Party of Order, and if done properly, more and more people can join them.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the cold winds of autumn and winter have subsided, and the warm sun has once again enveloped Paris.
Holding the heavy bound book of the Constitution of the Second Republic, the speaker of the Legislative Assembly, Duban, looked grim, and walked to the speaker's rostrum under the gaze of many parliamentarians, he stood straight next to the rostrum, and then slowly placed the bound book on the rostrum, held the speaker's wooden nut with his right hand and solemnly knocked three times to show quietness.
The councillors in the audience stopped whispering, and for a moment the entire Bourbon Palace fell silent.
Speaker Duban said in a loud voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, after a lapse of three months, the Legislative Assembly has reopened, and these three periods are ......."
Speaker Duban will take care of the events dealt with by the Interim Committee for three months, including St. Douban. Arnault's inquiries and Shangargne's dismissal were all reported to the Legislative Assembly.
Some of the Republican legislators in the northwest showed shocked expressions, they did not expect so much to happen in the short period of three months, and their eyes gradually turned to the side of the Legislative Assembly Order Party.
Speaker Duban, who finished the report, made a concluding remark: "In the past three months, the Provisional Assembly has experienced a lot and made many untimely judgments! Many judgments are expedient! If any member of the Legislative Council disagrees, he or she may appeal to the Legislative Assembly. ”
Speaking of this, Speaker Duban subconsciously glanced at the "social democrats" camp, and he seemed to hope that the "social democrats" would launch a charge.
To his disappointment, however, the "Social Democrats" did not hold any meeting with his hints.
Speaker Duban had no choice but to give up the little Jiujiu in his heart and enter the next topic.
At this moment, Thiers and Berrier appeared in the corridor on the right side of the Bourbon Palace Council, and Speaker Duban immediately spoke: "Before the start of the council, I would like to announce one thing, Thiers and Berrier will join the republican camp, and their positions will be from the right to the left!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the republicans exploded, and the parliamentarians who were unaware of the accession of Thiers and Berrier asked Kafenyak, Jean. What happened to Bastide and the others, they could only explain to the Republican legislators what was going on.
In contrast to the chaos on the part of the Republicans, the Party of Order was in a special camp, with no ridicule or invective, and the parliamentarians simply sat in their chairs in silence, staring at Thiers and Berrier.
Thiers and Berrier also smiled and bowed to the Order camp, as if to say goodbye to their old selves, and then entered the republican camp.
After the new pattern is completed, it is time for the annual debriefing.
Molny, the Minister of Railways, was the first government minister to take office.
"Ladies and gentlemen, by this day our country has built a railway network of 4,000 kilometres, 100 kilometres more than in 1848, and 80 per cent of the main trunk lines provided for in the Railway Act of 1842 (the Railway Act of 1842 envisaged 6,520 kilometres of major trunk lines. Among them, the three main lines of Paris-Nancy-Strasbourg, Paris-Brussels, and Lyon-Marseille have all been opened to traffic, and the passage of these three lines will greatly save our travel problems, and the remaining routes are expected to be completed in 1852...... We ......"
Morny's railway is planned in Jérôme. Under Bonaparte's strong push, some of the railways that had been laid only after the Crimean War were now largely completed.
The main railway line, which originally existed only on the drawing board, has become a reality, especially the opening of the Strasbourg-Paris direction, which is more conducive to the transfer of troops and the transportation of iron ore.
The rapid construction of the railroad doubled the production of steel and sleepers in France, and a large number of steel plates were transported by train to the site where the railroad was laid as soon as they were produced from the factory.
The construction of railways has also led to the construction of other industries, especially locomotives for high-precision industries, and in order to make the opening of the railway line faster, the Schneider factory in Le Clézzo is located in Jérôme. Under Bonaparte's administrative directive, production was carried out in conjunction with other locomotive manufacturers in Paris, and semi-bureaucrats were stationed in the state-owned factories to supervise and guide them.
In the process of mutual communication, each manufacturer has basically made progress, and the cooperation of many manufacturers in the production process has gradually been honed, and they suddenly found that compared with the previous single fight, the union is obviously more conducive to production.
A cartel-like federation in Jérôme. Under the guidance of Bonaparte gradually established, however these manufacturers did not know that all they did was Jérôme. Bonaparte's attempt was an experiment in the initial industrial mobilization.
Judging from the results, it is true that after industrial mobilization, it is faster than before.
The production circle of interests with the railway as its core was replaced by Jérôme. Bonaparte combed it through it in the form of a federation.
Of course, the construction of high-speed railways is indeed conducive to the improvement of employment rate and stability in France, but the dividend period of railways is not always there, excessive expansion will inevitably lead to the generation of railway fever, once the cost of railway acquisition is higher than the cost of his input, the collapse of the entire railway industry in an instant.
After Morni's debriefing, Thiers, who had newly joined the republican faction, immediately stood up and asked, "Minister Morni, I would like to ask you a question!" ”
"Speak!" Morney replied with a smile.
"What you've reported is really beautiful! The speed of construction of the railway is indeed very fast! Thiers first boasted to Morny, and then changed the subject: "Minister Morny, I would like to ask, how many bonds has your Ministry of Railways issued so far?" ”
"I'm afraid I can't reveal this!" Molny's face changed slightly, he had expected Thiers to ask him such a question: "The bonds of the Ministry of Railways are bought spontaneously by the citizens of Paris!" ”
"In other words, Minister Morni, you don't know how many bonds have been issued?" Thiers sets a language trap for Morny.
If Morni does not know how many bonds to issue, then it means that Morni, the Minister of Railways, is not qualified, and they can initiate a no-confidence motion against Morni.
Although the no-confidence motion is likely to fail, it can at least disgust Jérôme. Bonaparte, take them a bit.
Thiers only gave up on overthrowing the Bonapartes for the time being, which does not mean that he wants to pay homage to the damned Bonaparte.
"No comment!" Molney again replied with a tough attitude.
